Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed March 11, 1910. Serial No. 548,595.
Patented July as,
To all'whom it may concern: 4
Be it known that I, Dawson BOGSHON KINSEY, a subject of the Kin ofGreat Britain, residing in the city .of oronto, in
York, Province of Ontario,
ful Im rovements in Keyless Locks, of which te following is aspecification. v
My invention relates to improvements in more particularly for use in connection with lockers in which clothing and other articles are temporarily housed,
and with which locks, a coin and check must be used before the same can be opera-ted, and the principal object of my invention is to construct my lockso that the apertures or o enings for receiving the coin and check wil be alternately opened and closed so as to insure the absolute privacy of the lock when the. check has been issued therefrom.
' Another object of my invention is to construct my lock so that it can be used in connection with the ordinary latch orfastening means used on lockers, and which latch or fastening means will be free td be turned in oruer to permit the opening of the lockerdoor when my lock has been operated after the insertion thereinto of the proper check or coin.
A still further object of my inventionis'to construct my look so that it will .be' impossible to operate the same when a wrong-sized cogu is passed .thereinto.
-A still further object of my invention is to provide each lock with means whereby only a particular check can be used therewith, and the construction of my invention will be hereinafter more particularly de- 40 scribed, and the parts I claim as new will bgpointed out in the claims forming part 0 this specification.
Igigure 1 is a front elevation of a lockerdoo with my lock attached thereto.
. Fi 2 is a rear perspective view of lily-100%,
showin the same coacting with the latch cker which is shown as locking the (locker-do r, which is shown in section. Fig.

'is a perspective view of the seat for the check, and the member keying the same in place, and Fig. 8 is a detail hereinafter referred to. a
In the drawings, like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in' each figure.
The lock is set before it can be unlocked by a coin, i. c. it is primed with a check, and when an approprlate coin is inserted in its proper opening, and the'locl:
laio.
operated, this operation simultaneously delivers the check and unlocks the latch or locking means so that the locker-door may be opened. When the locker-door is close and the latch or lockingmeans turned to hold the door closed, the same is locked by my lock, and the said "lock can only be operat-ed to unlock the door-by passing the check through its proper opening back into the lock and operating the same, when the said latch or locking means is unlocked, and it may be turned so as to permit the opening of the door. The unlocking of the'lock bymeans ofthe check' sets or primes the lock again, so that after the latch or locking means has been turned to engage with the frame of the locker so as tohold the door closed, and which operation results in the locking of this latch by means of my lock, the lock can only be again operated by means of another suitable. coin. p
The coin and check used in my. lock are what I may term fugitive keys in the sense that these elements have only a momentary positioning which is when they are alternately usedas intermediate means by means of which certain elements i'n'my lock are operated in order to unlock thelatch, or locking' means, carried by the lockerdoor. i A is the locker-door and same is suitably hinged to the upright B by a plurality of hinges C one only of which is shown/ l) is a suitable face-plate for my lock, and the same is suitably secured on'theoi'itside of the door A. For convenience in manufeature I construct the frame ofmy lock of the middle-plate E which is secured to the face-plate D and a back-plate F which *is suitablysecured to the middlesplate. E. The locker door A is provided with an opening Gr through which extends the outer face. of the middle plate E so. that'the samemay rest against the inner face of the face plate D.
' face plate D so as to describe plate. The head K of this plug H operates in the chamber L formed in the middle plate It, and through the check opening M formed I in the face plate D so: as to plug up this openin ;at certain times. 2 is a springcontrol ed plug which is also held in the bracket I, and the same extends through the hole 3 formed in the backplate F. The heau 4 of this plug 2 operates in the cham-- her 5 formed in the middle plate E and through the coin opening 6 formed in the plug up this opening at certain times.
In Fig. 3, the lock is shown set or rimed with a check 7, and the positions 0 the parts are as shown particularly in Fig. 2 wherein the latch 8 is locked by my lock in engagement with the wall 9 of the locker. Now in order to unlock-the latch 8 so that the locker-door may be opened, a
'com is passed through the coin opening 6 and the same escapes therefrom through the coin slot 10 at the bottom of which it is received by the coin seat 11. The position of the coin is shown in dotted lines in Fi 4 and it will be seen that the same is hel on its seat directly in front of the inner end 12 of the, spring-controlled plunger-rod 13 which extendsthrough the hole 14 formed in the face plateD. "The position of the coin 15 is directly in front of the head 16 of the spring-controlled coin plunger-rod 17 which operates through the hole 18 formed in the back plate F, and which extends through the bracket J carried by said back plate. When the plunger-rod 13 is shoved inward, the coin is carried inward along its seat 11, and of course carries with it the head 16 and its coin-plunger-rod 17 until the said coin escapes from its seat 11 when it drops therefrom into the coin box 19. 'By the time the win 15 has escaped from its seat 11, the head 16 has been moved to the limit of its inward movement,'a nd the extent of this movement is suflicient to cause the rod 17 to move the lever 20 (pivoted by the pin 21 to the post 22 carried by the back plate F, with which lever the pin 23 operates in the slotted end 24 thereof) so as. to cause this lever (in the slotted end 25 of which operates the-pin 26 carried by the plu 2) to moveoutivard the plug 2 so as to a movement just 'descflbed'plaoes the plug 2 and the rod 17 in positions opposite to those illustrated in Fig. 4, and these parts are held in those positions by the means hereinafter 27 is a latch plate which has bearin at each end in the bracket J. The coin-p unger-rod 17 is provided with a cam 28', and
this latch 8.-
lutelvplu-g till? coin-opening 6. The.
as this lunger-rod 17 operates through a slot 29 ormed in the latch plate 27, it will be understood that during the described movement of the plunger-rod 17, the cam 28 will engage with the end 30 of the slot 29 and force the latch plate 27 in the di= rec-tion indicated by arrow ,until this cam passes through the said slot and assumes the dotted position shown. This en agement of the cam 28 with the said atch plate 27 holds the plug 2 and rod 17 in the positions into which they :have been described as having been moved, holding under compression the springs a and bthereof respectively. So soon as the cam 28 has passed through the slot 29, the leaf spring 6 (resting in the sloti formed in said latch plate and bent over the stud g carried by the back plate F and secured at its 11 per end around the pin it carried by said ack plate), forces said latch plate back to normal position.
31 is a pin carried by the latch-plate 27,
and the same is normally in engagement with the bolt 32 hinged at 33 to the bracket 34 carried by the frame of the lock. Now when the latch plate is moved by the cam 28 as described, the pin 31 thereofmoves the bolt 32 toward the frame of the lock far enough to move the head 35 thereof out of the path of movement of the shoulder 36 of the latch 8, and at the completion of this movement, the spring 37 riveted to the latch 8 and, normally pressing against its adjacent side of the bolt 32, springs in front of the offset portion 38 of the head 35 (see Fig. 8), thereby positively holding the bolt 32 out of the path of movementof the shoulder 36. By turning the handle 39 of the latch 8 in the direction indicatedby arrow in F 1, the end of this latch is disengaged 37 ismoved out of contact with the bolt 32 I during the operation of the latch 8, the said rear portion 40 will have previously moved into the path of movement of the head 35 so as not to interfere with this movement of When the locker-door .A is
closed and the latch 8 isxbeing'turned, during the return to normal-position thereof, the spring 37 'on its upward movement e1'1-: gages with the edge 41 of the offset portion 38 and is' so deflected by'this construction as not to interfere with the'force exerted by the leaf spring 42 against the bolt '32 to p01- sition the head 35 thereof in respect of the shoulder 36 as shown in Fig. 2, thereby lockin 1 the latch 8.
imultaneous with the described -move- I ments of the coin-plunger-rod 17' and the plug 2, the arm 43 secured in the coin-plunger-rod 17' by the nut 44, is moved so as to I the slot 50 formed in. the positioned so as to allow senses withdraw its extension 45 (which extension operates through the holes 46 and at? formed respectively in the middle and the back plates E and F, and across the slot 18) out of the path of movement of the check 7 and so allows this checlr to be delivered by gravit-y on to the tray 49.
operates through a hole formed in.
bracket J and also through a or formed lnthe back plate F, and when given the movement outward as described, moves the lever 56, which le er, by reason of the p n 62 carr ed by the spring-contr lied plug H o eratin in the slotted end (52:5 thereof, D
moves this plug H outward thereby with- 7 drawing the head K thereof from tl'ie check opening M into the chamber L and so uncover the opening to the check slot 6%.
I 65 is a spring mounted on the springcontrolled plug H and'held between the bottom of the hole 0 and the pin This spring (35 together with the spring 52, assist or make positive the movements of the springcontrolled plug H and the check-plunger rod 51. l
Now that the check opening M is open, when it is desired to unlock the locker door A again, the check 7 is passed through the check opening M and passes by gravity through the slot 64 until it comes to rest upon the check seat 67 by means of which it is positioned in front of the spring coin trolled plunger-rod 68. The end 39 of the plunger-rod 68 extends through the hole 70 formed in the face plate I), and when this plunger-rod is moved inward, the said check s moved inward on its seat 61 carrying with it the head 5;. So soon the check 7 has Llie chain be r coin-plunger-rod i? will beforced'through When the cam 28 has shifted the latch:
the slot 29 and come to rest against tlieback plate I thus moving the rod 17 and plug into the positions shown in Fig. 4t, and positioning the extension -15 in time to arrest the downward movement of the check 7' throu' the slot e8. So soon the plungerlwen moved inward as already consequent shifting of .the will permit the spring to a, latch plate spring in front of the head 35 of the bolt 32, and thus'unlocl: the latch 8.
From the foregoing described movements it will be clearly understood that when the coin opening 6 is opened, the check opening M is ptugged and vice versa. After each .ooeration of the latch plate 27, itivill. be
nderstood' that its leaf spring 6 will immediately position the same so that the pin 31 will be positioned so as not to interfere with the movement of the bolt under the inliuence of the leaf: spring Tl. a pin against which one spring 7 abuts.
The check seat 6'? is positioned in the formed in the middle plate E, and in ord r to lrey the same in position, I provide a lrey '73 which occupies the upper end of the portion of the chamber T2 and re on the i shoulders 7d of the said check seat. The
front end of the hey'73 is slotted as shownthus forming the check slot 65%, and in the seat of the check seat 6? is formed a slot which really is the top ofthe slot 48. 1 preto use the check scat, i can thereby construct my looks so that they can each only be opened by their particular check. The seat of the checlg seat is provided with tongues and grooves 76 and 77, and it will be of course understood that the bottom of the check must be correspondingly shaped to fit these-tongues and grooves before the check can be inserted into the loclz. "To insure the check being inserted into the lock in the proper position, one corner of the check cut otl, asshown at T8, in order that it may be passed into the check opening M,
coin. The upper ends 82 of the wings are shaped as shown so that the proper coin will properly fit thereon and move against tlrese wings with the minimum amount offriction.
The plunger-rods 13 and 68 are each mounted in a. housing ,83 which is suitably I, secured to the faceplate D. Each of these shown at i and 0 directly in the path of movement of the inner ends of the plungerrods 13 :and 68, sothat while the said plunger-rods are free toy-be depressed at any time, still by reason'of the limited inward movement that they have, and further by reason .of the described construction of the said heads, the inward movement of the said plunger-rods, when .a coin or check is not positioned in front thereof, cannot possibly actuate the lock. v
The head 16 is secured to the coin-plun I ger-rod 17 by any means as, for instance, a
screw 3 The bottom side of the head 54 is tongued and grooved as shown by dotted line in 3 so asto conform to the seat of the cheek-seat 67. The face plate D is preferably chambered at p to receive the free end of the extension of the arm 43, so that,;the extension will positively prevent the escape of the check 7 at certain times. By removing the back plate F, it'will be understood that the key 73 and check seat 67 can be readily removed and replaced.
\Vhile I have described what I consider to be the best embodiment of my invention, I desire it to be understood that the principle can be embodied in different forms and I desire not to be limited beyond the requirements of the prior art and the terms of my claims. 7 y
In case a check be lost belonging to a particular lock, the check seat 67 will be removed from the lock and will be replaced by another check seat having different shaped tongues and grooves or other suitable configuration, so as to prevent the lost check from being used. a
